However a new video card and in this case more than two and worse not even the same model makes me write to talk to it's designer and ask them to sort it out.
The RAM issue is usually a sign of too many sticks. That's a deep discussion about many areas but as you add more sticks the timing usually has to be slowed to allow for more chips on the bus. For blood thirsty gamers I like to see pairs of RAM and just one pair to maximum payoff without having to discuss why more chips = pain.
The X-Fi is both loved and hated. I'm sure you know why. Driver madness?

Hi all. Below are the specs for my PC.
Since upgrading the graphics card, its probably slightly slower than it was before upgrading. Any thoughts on whats causing the problem. I'm guessing that there's a bottle neck somwwhere and that something needs upgrading. The graphics card is very good its like a Ferrari used to plough a field. what do i need to change.
Note that The motherboard can only handle 12gb. I added 24 and it went skewey.
